EPILOGUE

The rage between the seven kingdoms of Everett had lasted for almost a centuries fighting for power, fighting for honor, fighting for domination. Many of men died clutched with steel sword to protect its king, but all of them die without seeing the eyes of their wives and children, valor dies with them and memories are forgotten.

The capital of Scarsa had reign for almost a hundred of years. During the reign of King Tendarius whom mostly called him the Unforgiver, being called of such a name because of a hundred men dies of thirst and disease in his castle’s dungeon because of what he calls unlawful behavior. Unlawful behavior such as the poor old man running after his goats escaped from the wooden barricade and until it reaches the King’s Garden, he was accused feeding his goats in his expensive grasses that only grow within his castle’s garden. Such as a 10 year old orphan boy who steals a couple of bread for her younger sister was punished to cut off his fingers and her sister was sent to kitchen to work. Such as seizing all street performers around the city because they are suspected of being thieves and braggarts that disturbs his sleep at noon. And worst is the old lady that heals hundreds of young children and old men and women from unbelievable illness and was accused of being a witch.

Being the capital, the entire kingdoms around its sovereignty are lawfully dutiful to pay their taxes to the king but none of its money is given back to each of the respected and deserving kingdom. And when King Tendarius insanity over pointless punishments and too unnecessary taxes gone too wild and goes beyond any man’s patience, it is then that the other six kingdoms sees the capital as a common threat to them. From that very moment they would like to end the era of tremendous cruelty and injustice. And that is when the other Kingdoms rise to rebellion.  

The rebellions which leads to war, as many old men refers to is the most unbelievable, beyond the realm of man to understand how the kingdom of Scarsa yells victorious against the other six combating kingdom. It is believed that the defeat of the other six is not because Scarsa is mightier than the other, but it is because the attackers are divided into their own attacks.

The kingdom of Tetoneh in the northern part of Everett and the Great City of Sion at the Everett’s Great Cliff come together at one command. They travel in the valley of skull and with them are thousand armored men hungry to fight for their children and wives.

The Iron island of kingdom of Hariodorn in the western sea built a thousand of the largest fleet the world had ever seen, these fleets are engineered to destroy travels for months until they reach the shore of Admhore and the marched to attack is established immediately.

The mighty river of Sioridon lays the kingdom of Chisili, they are known as the sword capital of Everett. It is because they build the unbelievable hydro operated wooden machine. The powerful current of the river Sioridon gives the entire kingdom the ultimate power to create advance weaponry.

From the mountainous region of Simbah nestled the underground empire of coal and mining, the Kingdom of Gredon. They are said to be the world’s famous bomb maker because of the minerals’ abundance around the kingdom’s land. 

And the most peaceful place of the entire country of Everett can be found in the south eastern through the thick forest of Eden, is can be found in the towers in the highland Kingdom of Celesty. This is the only kingdom that sends no warriors, but thousands of its monks healer travel forth to heal the fallen warriors.

The strength of these strong kingdoms comes close to destabilized when the attacked is highly divided. Rumor has it that the agreement and plans of the attack is done through sending the entire layout of the mission through hawks alone. Such mistake to take when the route of these birds are perceive very obvious to the capital. The Capital or the kingdom of Scarsa is perfectly positioned right in the middle of the other kingdom and the birds’ route carrying the missions always passes the capital. Such a careless move to take when the war’s victory is blurry and defeat is near to grasp. The watchmen of the towers at the high walls of the capital begin to notice the unusual behavior of these birds which once or twice a week the same group of hawks passes above the capital heading towards different directions. From that very moment the commander of the watchmen Lord Van Burren ordered one of his men to arrow one of these birds to investigate what may lies within the piece of parchment attached into the bird’s claws. With all the information from the parchment, the entire plan is revealed, and the plan of the six kingdoms to attack is considerably a total anticipated fiasco. Then a laid out plan was then acted immediately to seize every single bird that passes over the capital, suspected or not must be arrowed straightaway that may carry the same message.­­­­

Due to the perceived information about the unanticipated rise of rebellion, Lord Van Burren has its own plan, a plan where downfall of the attacked is very much certain. He ordered his men to look for the most identical hawk in the fowl’s asylum to those hawk been captured and garbed them up with the same gear they wear and planted false messages telling different days of attacked. Wise Lord Van Burren, nothing is easier to cut than a separated stick away from the bunch than the entire bunch itself.

After that total bloody shed of foreseen humiliation and failure of victorious plans, the Kingdom of Scarsa dominated once more.                          

CHAPTER 1: The Secret Assembly

In all of the world’s strangest places, the secret chamber of the six council or commonly refer to as the Lion’s Lair has the most severe eerie felling around it. The Lion’s Lair is the only living largest underground assembly chamber in the history of Everett, others were buried by quakes and others become untraceable. The chamber is dark, cold and breathable air is considered a scarce. The chamber is only composed of a single room that resembles an imperfect shape of an oval. The chamber’s wall is made up of dark shinny stones due to the moist on the surface and the sound of dripping water are echoing around the walls. The surface of the walls shows evidence of sharp objects which is used to dug this enormous space underneath a land, and around this walls are the most important part of the chamber, the six kingdom’s doors. The six doors are made up of heavy metals and wood that cannot be penetrated with any sharp object that man had ever invented. And at the center of the doors attached the emblem of which each of the members of the underground society represents.

The Kingdom of Tetoneh is represented with a large bronze head of an angry looking wild boar with an eye patch on the left, carved beneath is the kingdom’s axiom “Fear not death”. This is hanged against a heavy dark door made of aged wood from the deep forest of Tetoneh which is located directly at the north of the chamber.  

A Golden six legged horse standing proudly against a dark wood represents the Kingdom of Sion with an axiom says “Glory, Prosperity and Power” which is nailed hard against a white wood with heavy dark metals around the edges of the wood which position next to the left of Tetoneh’s door. Next to the left of the Sion’s door stands proudly the door of Chisili which is represented with ship against a devouring waves and beneath it says “Triumph against the Waves” which is attached to a heavy round metal with golden edges that glimpsed against the light from the center of the chamber emitted from the large lamp hanging from the roof of spiky shinny stones. Next to the left of Chisili is the Kingdom of Hariodorn’s emblem, it is the most strangest in form. It’s a collection of five sword attached to each other with a golden handles and with gems of different colors on it and on the center attached a wooden capital letter “H” and underneath says “Moon Conquerors”.  Next to the left, the Gredon’s emblem is all black, too black to recognize it immediately against the black metal door to which it is attached. A shinny crow widely spreads its wings with each claws grasp a spherical formed bombed and on the top is a black banner with a black embossed print which say “Master of the Dark”. And next to the right of Tetoneh’s is a gilded door and attached here is the emblem of the Kingdom of Celesty which shows a golden hand that produces rays of light down to a banner that says “Heal the Wounded, Save the Sinner”.         

The doors are locked from behind the tunnels and only the people from the outside the chamber can open it. That makes this doors dangerous and fatal and when the assembly starts to gather, all the doors are widely open because of such reason and other one vital purpose is for the breathable air to accumulate the entire chamber making the rulers survive the entire meeting. Each of this doors are guarded with four soldiers from different kingdom, two facing the tunnel out and the other facing inward to the chamber.

The echoing sounds that issues from the drips of waters from the ceiling is interrupted by a sudden burst of deafening thud of locks clanging and chains dragging like metals against metals, desperate sounds issues from behind the doors simply signifies that whoever from the other side shows urgency or panic. And in the sudden the six doors open loudly which makes the echoes echoed more, immediately followed by the entrance of the six rulers, all of them utter words of which listeners cannot understand. Only one conclusion can be drawn, they are undeniably arguing.

“Have you lost your mind?” he shouted with revulsion “we lost it, we lost the war. This is impossible, it has been three months since we have battled into the field. What happen? Why did you not follow what we have planned? ” then King Aro of Sion burst into a very deep sigh as if he want to point out the blame to everyone but don’t bothers to do so and he suddenly find himself launching his entire body into his allotted throne while keep on massaging his aching head. While in the south of the chamber directly from the Hariodorn’s door with so much stiffness with curled forehead and crossed arms suddenly addressed a words just to no one in certain “We have followed the plan, the hawk that was sent was the only lead we have to follow. The entire fleet settled three days before the attacked, just enough to have two days for us to travel into the capital. That is the exact command I have followed. There is no way we can be defeated if we have just made the attacked – together…” and then she was immediately interrupted by a stout man from his immediate right “Then why you attacked alone with all of your command? You have known that already, that to attack with such a small number of men is fatal and a stupid act, you are outnumbered”. Then she responded directly looking into the eyes of the stout man which are halfway concealed by enormous amount of shrubby eyebrows and said “I know Benjamin, but the capital have already notice the entire command I have, we have no plan to be killed without fighting. We have no chance I know, but we have no choice, they leave us no choice. Most of my men died and few retreated. We attacked with a hundreds of ships but we retreated with just ten, the last count I have” her face is filled with sorrow but she has manage not to show it, even controlling her feelings to be shown. She’s the only woman in this chamber, and she have to be tough before this men take advantage of her weakness.

“I have understood Lady Margaret’s positioned. That is exactly what happens to us when we reach the capital. We don’t fight sword against sword, we were there to help the wounded but we can’t help but to defend ourselves.” Master Serverio from the highland of Celesty shows so much calmness despite the raging and intense feeling inside the chamber “I think, this is not the right time for us to point out blames, this is the perfect time to be reunited once more because – we need each other. What happened is unanticipated, unexpected and – deadly” he said “what is now our plan Marcus?” he asked looking directly into the sunken face of Tetoneh’s King.

Caught by surprise, the face of King Marcus is dominated by its prominent cheekbone, pointed nose and eyes most likely considered just a tiny long slit into the skin was not prepared how to answer the question and the only thing that he manage to utter is “That is really – difficult to answer at the – moment…” it feels like that the statement has still a continuation because King Marcus pause quite long enough. Suddenly Hermias from Gredon stand, with his long silky black hair, beard and mustache which matches his long drapes of black dress robes, with black gem stones on his neckline which shines from afar. He then draws something out from his robe’s pocket; it is a rolled up parchments which some parts of the edges were torn and some looks being burned and he then throws it into the center of the black marble table. The parchment is the complete outline of the plan of attack, with complete drawings of the capitals topography, secret passages, alleys, tunnels and gateways. And on the top most part of the parchment shows the day of the attack, clear and legibly written with red ink “the third day after the first full moon”. And with a sudden moment every member of the council draws out the same parchment hidden somewhere in their pockets and throws them above the parchment of King Hermias. With all eyes set upon the date of each parchment, they were all astounded by the fact that the only reason they have faced tremendous failure is coming from this parchments. Before anyone of them can compare and comprehend what happened, King Aro Suddenly launched an unexpected attacked into King’s Marcus face making everyone of them put into a total panic. Their arms were struggled and throwing strong punches to each other and after they were free from being thrashed, each of these proud Kings draws out there sword in attempt to hurt each the attacker but they were separated immediately by their guards under Serverio’s commands.         

While being chained by hands by one of his guards King Aro shouted addressing Marcus Directly “We trusted you, we have trusted you to lay out the plan. But what have you done? You’re a traitor, traitor to the Order, traitor to your men” the anguished was released through words but more are coming. He again attempted to attack Marcus but before he could pursue immediate assault Lady Margaret speaks with all her command.

“Enough – enough all of you, such an insolent behavior you’re showing us. The Order didn’t want us to be divided in this treacherous time. It more dangerous if we allow ourselves to be more detached from the order. Be still my brothers, we still have more to do than discussing how we fail and spit out blames” and she paused with eyes locked into the parchments dates, and in her mind “How come? How did all these happen?” and then King Aro said with ferocity “But I am sure my lady, you want to know why we have different date of attacked, aye? – for God’s sake release me” addressing his own guards and he then settled into his sit and they released him from being hand guarded.

The entire chamber had silent once more. The echoed drips of water have managed to dominate the entire air. No one could ever imagine that such thing will happen, never in their wildest dreams even the thought of it is unimaginable. King Benjamin’s squeaky voice had risen “Perhaps – we need some pretty elaboration from you Marcus. Did you do this?”

And with so much trembling and emotion King Marcus stand immediately and hit the marble table with his both fist close and said “I will never, ever betray the Order. And I am not a traitor” and he stare directly into King Aro’s eyes. “I am confident that I have printed with my both able hands the parchments with the same date, I know because I have written it myself, checked it many times and used my fastest Hawks my kingdom could produce.”

“The hawks,”                             

A New Place

It’s been awhile when I disconnect myself to the cyber world which I have considered to be one of the places where I have found my self the most comfortable. Funny to imagine that things happen so fast forward, the plan to visit my auntie in manila is scheduled to be on the APRIL the 2^nd but I was rescheduled to fly right away, a month before the original plan. Fascinated and shocked by this event, I have still come up of a quick decision, and it is to fly immediately.    

Now, MARCH 1, 2011 and 4:30 in the afternoon, Tuesday is the very first day I have seen the capital city of my Philippines. With most fascination I have appreciated the hassle and the bustle of the city. Waiting for my chances to arrive, I have prepared a lot and ready to fight’

A Visit of a Muggle in King's Cross

I think my bladder will burst as I strode my way to the nearest comfort room. Clicking the lock and get myself in, zipping my zipper down to release the drowning eel and when I released the fluid my body gives a satisfying jerk. What a comfort I have, halfway down to finish, I wiggle the remaining drops to avoid yellow blotches on my white cotton underwear and made myself done. Glancing towards the windows facing the city park, I saw the moon beaming down below to all the serenely sleeping things beneath it. How lovely the night was, and when I check my watch it told me that I still have four more hours to sleep before I could busy myself packing for my first trip to Canada. My manager will visit the country to promote the hotel where I am working into. I have focus myself into the surface of the moon, I notice that there is something in the middle of the moon which is I think is not part of its geography. A perfect dot in the middle of the perfect sphere of the celestial body, which makes me think of scary image in the movie like a flying bat in the moon. But the dot is getting bigger and bigger, it makes me wrinkled my forehead and think passionately of what could it possibly be? So I climbed up into the bowl, positioning my feet against the bowl strong foundation and dock into the window to have a closer look. Then after a second, I convinced myself that thing is getting nearer and heading towards the direction of the house.

So I run out of the comfort room and run towards the window in my bedroom which faces the same park and has a full view of the moon too. There, I have the perfect view of the unknown thing. I know that I am dealing with this strange thing but I realized I am not sacred at all, what a brave man I am. Because instead of running towards my bed and cover my whole body with thick blanket with shivering knees and gritting teeth, I leaned myself more closer to the window making myself excited to have a clearer sight of the growing thing. The image of the flying object is getting closer than ever before and it is getting whiter and clearer making me decide that it is a bird.

I think I saw this thing somewhere in my mind but have the difficulty to find. With great astonishment and amazement I cracked a loud shout “This cannot be!”

My heart doubled the speed of its beating making me feel cold and nervous for the very first time. How on earth can an owl so intelligent enough to perch and envelope in its sharp beak. Yes! It is an owl with is very prominent large yellow eyes and wide wings span. Now the bird is closer than ever, enough for me to tell that it is a snowy white owl and it directly flew over the roof of my house. With sudden burst of excitement I run towards the opposite window to check if the bird really does pass the house, but I cannot see the bird anymore. My mind draws images after images of the bird landing in my very own roof and transforming itself into something that is very much scary. Now I start to panic but I managed somehow to calm myself. So I need to drink water as what my body demanded and seeing myself running towards the kitchen. With the run I have done it tripled the speed of my heart and decided to trot myself towards the kitchen along the dimly lighted hallway. Cold water may be enough to make myself calm. Pouring the ice cold water into my drying throat and put the glass into the sink and there, I saw it again. I saw the bird clutching its claws with practice balance on the fence with the envelope perch on its beak. Without hesitation I was very much determined to have a closer look of the bird, and so I went out into the yard. I keep on imagining that the owl will transform itself in my very front, forming into a silhouette of man and draw a dagger from somewhere and dig in it deep into my heart then transform itself again to a bird and leaving me lifeless. But it is not what appeared, because the bird just stands so calmly and affects me so much. And finally I decided to touch the bird and take the envelope out its beak. I cannot see evil in the eye of the bird or a chance that it could hurt me in any ways. So I stretch my hand towards the bird and touched the envelope. And as I have the full hold of the envelope in my hand the bird immediately flap its wings and stretches it out making a large shadow over my face. I have panic a bit for I was caught by surprise of the scale of the bird and starting to run towards the door and the bird flew into the air and vanish out into the cold dark night sky.

What a bizarre night I am dealing tonight if I still have a trip to attend tomorrow afternoon, maybe this is a bad omen for me to continue the travel. But I open the envelope anyway which reveals a letter with a strangely figured logo if a shield divided into four quadrants with different colors and presented with animals and with a large capital letter “H” in the middle of it. And as soon as I read the whole entry of the letter I was perfectly surprised of the content. How on earth could this be possible, a faculty of witches and wizards is inviting me to be a visitor in a place which they called Hogwarts. This is not just an ordinary place, but a school for young witches and wizards whom will go to learn the proper used of magic.

I cannot fully comprehend that this thing really does occur in this techno age. Witch and wizard are gone for how many centuries already. Aha! What if everything is just a perfect set up? Maybe there are plenty of cameras out there and I am televised around the globe with loads of audience waiting to laugh on how am I going to react on this prank? But the owl is the only thing that makes me feel that there is something tonight, something that is beyond what I am expecting. I checked the letter for how many times now and glancing to the bottom part of the letter with a beautifully scripted named which says:

The letter told me that I have to visit Hogwarts as one of the “Few Five Fortunate” non-magical being or what they call Muggles to witness the grandeurs of their world. Crap, I told myself. Instead of being intrigued by this odd experience of mine tonight I dive myself into my bed because I still have to prepare myself tomorrow.

The very next morning I packed and ready to leave, with my luggage piled and few bags to carry and with just a call from my boss, I am ready to set off. And in a matter of second my phone rang and it is my boss requesting me to fetch someone. After muttering of complete set of yes and yes sir, I started to drive myself to the King’s Cross Station. There, I have to meet someone that I thought would be a participant for the business promotional activity in Canada. I parked myself around, waiting for the queues of cars to pass I directly head myself between platform nine and ten where I was instructed to wait. I stood for quite a moment and whistling my boredom away. Straitening my stare away from the crowd I haven’t noticed I have already someone in my side which I caught coughing just to call my attention. The man is taller than me with fire flaming bronze hair and wearing a very bizarre set of clothing that makes him look like a magician, with a large black cloak around his body which concealed the inner design of his peculiar clothing.

The man didn’t smile and I asked him straight away.

“Good afternoon Sir, are you Mr. Ronald Weasley?”

“No Doubt” the man replied in monotone.

“I am Mr. Meljer Lozano, nice to meet you Mr. Weasley. You are the one I am instructed to meet. Let me lead the way sir, here” as I step forward for him to follow me to where I parked my car, he stopped me by holding me with his hand.

“No, you are coming with me. I am the one instructed to meet you here. Everything is under control and set for your two days tour to Hogwarts. The call you received is from your manager which is perfectly ” he stopped and continued with a whisper “Perhaps Confunded” he stopped again and glanced directly at me and continued his line “ given with total precaution to secure your job safely as soon as you get back to work. You have nothing to worry about.”

“But sir I do not understand what are you taking about? I think you have come to a wrong man, I still have business to attend and I’ll be meeting someone else now” I said strongly that if you happen to be near me you might conclude I am mad, making the people keep staring at me and Mr. Weasley. So I make my exit but again he stopped me by holding my shoulder and said to me directly.

“You received a letter last night” he doesn’t asked, it is a statement.

“How…how did you know about the letter?” I produced I faint smile and said “Aha! You are the owner of the owl and …” before I could finish my line Mr. Weasley draws something out of his pocket and I could remember nothing at all. It is as safe I were sleeping the whole way down to this white smoke belching scarlet train, I can see children running around me, youngster and adults were all busy around. Some were carrying trunks and cages with different kind of owls on it and some were holding toads, rats and cats and I never seen anything like these before. I can see parents counseling children and giving tips how to be a prefect. In other direction there are shouting and yelling “We will be in Gryffindor, Gryffindor, Gryffindor, hurray Gryffindor”. Gryffindor? What was that? And here comes a group of children with someone in the middle who talk with so much boasts “My mother is a pure-blood witch and my father is a pure-blood wizard, so what do you expect of me? Slytherine Quiditch Team will acquire a good Seeker”. Strange but the whole event fascinates me. But before I could decide to have a stroll by my self around, I could hear a high pitch voice from my back which is issuing from a lady with bushy brown hair. Shouting to someone which I can say for sure is Mr. Ronald Weasley.

“How could you Ron! Why did you Confunded him?” she crossed her hands and continue “Cannot you deliver a message to him so calmly? What if someone has seen you drawing out your wand? Perfect ticket to ministry of magic I think? ” shrieked the lady to Mr. Weasley.

“Blimey! Hermione, as what I have told you for how many time already now, no one did, no one have seen me Confunding him, and I am confident with that” replied Mr. Weasley. With that, Mr. Weasley caught me off guard glancing to their conversation and grabs me immediately in front of the lady. Then he introduce me to her “By the way, this is my visitor Mr. Meljer Lozano, a personal secretary of the muggle president of the famous hotels in London, he is a Filipino and been working in UK for about a decade already. He first witnessed the true magic when I drive that bewitch car of daddy and flew into the air. He wasn’t obliviated since he was not detected, careless Ministry of Magic.” He said the last few lines with disgust on it.

“Nice to meet you Mr. Lozano” said the lady

“And oh!, before I forgot, Mr. Lozano this is my lovely wife Hermione Granger Weasley” said Mr. Weasley with his extended hand to introduce Mrs. Weasley and so I did mine to shake Mrs. Weasley’s hands. She looked very intelligent to me and very kind and clever lady with her smile. Then she introduces her own visitor whom I can see to be an attractive man in the named of Mr. Walter Whitecloak.

“Where is Harry by the way? He must be here.” asked Mrs. Weasley.

“His on the train already with his visitor, I think we have to get inside and secure some compartment” suggest Mr. Weasley

“If Harry was already inside, he must have been booked us too, now off we go?”

Then a loud voice issued from the train announces the train is leaving in a moment. So we hurried our selves inside the scarlet vibrating train, it is like a large red serpent which is very much ready to strike.

We pass many compartments inside the train and were searching for someone whom they call Harry. And good lord, we ended up at last almost at the end of the tail of the train and get inside a compartment, in my amazement I never did observe that the interior size of the train is quite much larger compared to the size of the train’s exterior. But I did not put too much attention in it and just followed the couple inside the compartment. There, inside the compartment is a man sitting with a large circular spectacle together with a young lady dress in the same set of clothing I was wearing.

“Hi Harry! How long you’ve been waiting here?” asked Mrs. Weasley to the man sitting inside the compartment.

“Oh hi Hermione, not that long, just enough for Ms. Brown to have her rest” beamed Mr. Potter to Hermione by gesturing for us to sit down.

Then Mr. Potter greeted me by shaking my hand and so all of us exchanges greetings. So I took the chance to comfort my feet and leaned my back against the soft cushion of the chairs. I was about to close my eyes when Mrs. Weasley touch my hand which is sitting in front of me and said.

“Mr. Lozano, I would like to apologize on what my husband did to you this morning” she glance into her watch when the train roared once again to life and continued by saying “We are setting off, it is exactly 11 o’clock in the morning” she paused and beamed to me again “Again Mr. Lozano, I am very much sorry for what had happen, I assure you to punish… ” he instantly stopped as I interrupt him in the middle by saying.

“Him? Mr. Weasley?” I paused when Mrs. Weasley gives me a nod “Oh! Please do not bother your self about it Mrs. Weasley. Indeed, I am actually…shall we say… still surprise of everything. But in summary I have enjoyed this, but instead of punishing Mr. Weasley I would be much pleased if you would be kind enough to explain to me why I can’t remember anything from the moment I left King’s Cross Station because I am very much certain I am not in Britain anymore” with that, Mrs. Weasley gives me a wide smile and answered me.

If I am going to summarize what had happen to me this must be a good deduction to it. Mr. Weasley casts a Confundus Charm to me, according to her it is a jinx that causes a person or animated object to become highly confused. There appear to be varying degrees of inflicted confusion, ranging from tricking a person about a specific issue to making them lose all semblance of common sense, even to the point of endangering themselves. But in my case I was tricked by Mr. Weasley to earn less argument from me and take me with him easily. What a very nice thing to cast to someone, I think deeply. But Mrs. Weasley assures me very much that we are still in Britain. The other three: Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley and Mrs. Weasley were talking with so much eagerness to the subject they were raising when an old lady come pass our compartment pushing a trolley with loads of colorful sweets.

“Anything from the trolley? The travel is quite long dear” said the lady as he pokes her head inside our compartment and offer us different kind of sweets. “Pumpkin Pasties and Chocolate Frog Perhaps? What do you want?” I was caught by the bizarreness of the food they were offering me but Mrs. Weasley had already bought loads of chocolates which is enough for the six of us. Then she offered me a box of Chocolate Frog and in my total surprise the frog is really moving and it feels like alive. But they gestured that I must eat the frog at once before it would leap away and waste the delicious chocolates. And so, with so much repulsion of what might happen inside my mouth if I am going to eat this, I swallowed the frog entirely. From that very moment I have never tasted any chocolates that taste so wonderful.

The surrounding of the train is very mountainous and passes thick green forest and vast green field. I was quite bored in that very moment so I made up my mind to asked Mrs. Weasley something that might lead to a great concentration.

“Ahm, Mrs. Weasley?” I asked generously

“Yes? And please, you can call me Hermione” she said very positively with a wide assuring smile.

“Oh! So, Hermione? Where are we exactly going?” I asked. Though I have the slightest idea that we are heading to Hogwarts, I just want her to elaborate the idea and can build up a conversation.

“As what have you read in the letter, we are heading Hogwarts and we will be their about dark. Everything will be explained by Prof. McGonagall after the sorting ceremony and you will understand why you are here. Today, as you already know is September 1 the very first day where students come to study at Hogwarts School of witchcraft and wizardry. Though all of these passengers were students and will be attending school, you have a different purpose why you were invited. This is a very rare occasion that is why you are called the Few Five Fortunate.” She explained.

“Few Five Fortunate?” I glanced around to see Ms. Brown which is quite sleeping and Mr. Whitecloak who is looking so calm, as if this is not his first time. He blends a lot in the scenery and glanced back to Hermione “where are the others? I thought we are five? The Few Five Fortunate?” I asked.

“Oh yes, Mrs. Ginny Potter and Ms. Luna Lovegoode is in the nest compartment with their respective visitors and will be attending us later on” she stopped and glanced back into the outside view of the windows.

Time have already ticked away so ghastly, it feels like I was just standing in that platform and here I was, inside a train full of witch and wizard in the making. And the train conductor announces that we already reach our destination. Which I and the other people inside the train have to get out and will be heading to the school immediately. Though according to Hermione, first year student will not be attending the rest of the student for they will be on the boat and will be welcomed in the great hall for the sorting ceremony.

Then at the landing, we meet Mr. Potter’s Wife a beautiful lady with a hair the same with Mr. Weasley. Then appeared a lady with a very whimsical voice, feels like a fairy talking to me. Then we boarded again into carriages that pulled itself with its own accord, but according to Ms. Lovegoode the carriages are not pulling their own weight but magical creatures called thestrals are pulling them. These creatures are invisible to those who haven’t seen someone die. And I haven’t witnessed one myself so maybe that is why I cannot see them too.

Everything seems so creepy, cold and dark. Beyond the dark skies there lies an enormous building at the top of the cliff: The Castle of Hogwarts. From that very moment I told myself. I want o stay longer because I know that there is still plenty of magical things and creature will be introduce to us.

Then I gasp for a cold fresh air and brace myself to expect the most unexpected and whisper to my own ears “I Love Magic”. Then the carriage pulled higher and closer into the castle, and I am getting nearer into the place where thousands of amazing stories to be shared.

Share their world to a muggle like me.
